...Netgear are well known for their networking equipment and it is for this reason I want to tell you about a great piece of kit. The 24portswitch.
24ports of networking capability.... But what does that all mean???
Ok, let me tell you about what a network is.
Even the internet is just one big network. it is simply just a collection of computers that are connected together and can communicate. Simple!
But, how do you connect them together? Its not like they shake hands and have a chat is it?

To put a computer on a network, it needs a Network interface card or NIC. This plugs into your computer's motherboard. Its basically similar to installing a graphics card or sound card. You then need to connect the computer via the NIC card to...

...The basic method of playing Switch is the same the world over,
although the choice of penalty cards does vary and in doing so
causes untold confusion. I understand that this game has other
names but I don't know what they are.
Switch is a unique game, in that it doesn't follow the whist
or rummy format, nor is it a variation of poker or brag. Any
number can play but if there will be more than about 8
players, an extra pack of cards must be used. Whether the
